Full Idea
I resist the term 'trope' as it has become common for the proponents of tropes to regard objects as "bundles" of tropes. This turns tropes into something too much resembling parts of objects for my taste. .I think an object is a possessor of properties.
Gist of Idea
The supporters of 'tropes' treat objects as bundles of tropes, when I think objects 'possess' properties

A Reaction
This seems to imply a belief in 'substance', which is an intrinsically dodgy concept, but something has to exist. Keep ontology and epistemology separate! We can only know bundles of properties.
